About the Biloxi Property Market
Biloxi is a city located in Harrison County, Mississippi. Every property inside the Biloxi city limits is assessed by Harrison County Tax Assessor, which applies Mississippi property tax rules uniformly across the county.
Because Biloxi property values are set at the county level, the $150,000 county median home value and 0.97% effective tax rate apply to homes throughout the city. Homeowners who believe their Biloxi home is over-assessed have the right to file a appeal directly with Harrison County Tax Assessor before the First Monday in April deadline.
Mississippi allows the assessor to defend or adjust the assessed value during a appeal, so Biloxi homeowners should build a strong evidence-based case before filing — which is exactly what ProtestMax generates for $45.
